Does this happen to be on Novell SLES/SLED 10? I saw this bug sporadically and in several applications 6-9 months ago. I don't think I ever knew the cause or even what specifically tickled this problem, but my recollection is that a Novell patch set fixed it.

I remember that I saw a log of these in /var/log/messages (assuming you're logging locally). Consider looking there to see if you have other instances of this bug with other applications.
